Getting the Smell Out After a Diaper Explosion

Try pet products.

Or try soaking it in a bucket with vinegar... and/or baking soda..

Or, leave it out in the sun outside, all day... sun is natural deodorizer.

Hang them on the clothes line. Or just lay them out in the sun. The sun does and amazing job and getting rid of funk in clothes.

Combinde all these. Vinager with baking soda in the was and then line dry. after that wash it again with normal laundry soap and in the dryer (the last wash is just to get rid of the air dried feeling, which I hate. Love the sun, just not the crispyness that it gives fabrics)

Baking soda and white vinegar. Yes, it works!!! There's an additional benefit that it will not ruin the clothes! Put about a cup of each in the wash with the least amount of water and let soak for a couple hours. Finish the wash, then cycle through the wash again with nothing in it (not even soap).

Soak in the washer with baking soda, then wash. Repeat if needed. Line drying is a good idea too. The dryer sets in smells as well as stains! :)

Try putting white distilled vinegar in the wash. I use it to get rid of the urine smell. It may work for the other too.

Yep. Vinegar does the trick for just about any smell.

I would put a bit of bleach in the laundry or use Tide with bleach. A little bit of bleach works wonders.

if you want to go mainstream I would try borax and white vinegar as they help, but if you have a health food store or vitamin shoppe nearby go pick up a small bottle of tea tree oil. Add a few drops to the water once the washer is full and let it run through (you don't even need to add soap). It really helps with laundry odors and also disinfects. good luck!

Have you tried hanging them outside in the sun?

I always use baking soda in my wash. I put about a cup in with some detergent. My 19 month olds clothes are reletively clean, no stains. It should work with those poopy clothes! We've had a few clow outs and not smell or stains, well maybe a few stains on whites from poop.

I think the sun is pretty amazing when it comes to stuff like this. Dry them in the sun a couple of times after washing and see how that works.

I use fresh lemons in the washer.. Cut a small hole in a lemon and as the water is running into the washer, squeeze the lemon into the water (very little detergent added in). Let it soak for about 20 minutes, and then wash, the smell will be gone.. I hope this helps you..

Vinegar will do the trick! Put the "smelly" items in the wash on what ever normal cycle you would run with them. Then before you start the wash add 1 cup of vinegar to the water. It takes the smell away, it won't harm the items and they will not smell like vinegar when they are finished washing.
